An Overview of Anatomy and Physiology
• Anatomy- the study of body structure; the names of body parts• Gross Anatomy-
general body structures that can be seen with the naked eye
• Microscopic anatomy- small and requires a microscope
• Cytology- study of cells• Histology- study of
tissues
An Overview of Anatomy and Physiology• Physiology--study of the
functions of the body parts
• Relationship between anatomy and physiology– The structures (anatomy)
determine what functions (physiology) take
– Example: Nerve cells are long and thin (structure) to conduct messages (function)
Levels of Structural Organization• Tissues--groups of similar cells
working together– epithelial tissue--covers the
surface of the body and lines the cavities
– nervous tissue--forms the brain, spinal cord, and nerves
– connective tissue--used for support (bones and and cartilage), for the attachment of other tissues (tendons, ligaments, and fascia), or for other specialized functions (blood)
– muscle tissue--moves parts attached to it; skeletal, smooth, cardiac
Levels of Structural Organization• Organ Systems--organs working
together to perform a specific body function– integumentary--protects
internal body structures against injury and foreign substances; prevents fluid loss; important in temperature regulation
– skeletal--supports and protects soft tissues and organs; provides framework; attachments for muscles; produces blood cells
Levels of Structural Organization– muscular--moves body and its
parts; maintenance of posture; production of body heat
– nervous--controls and integrates body activities; responsible for "higher functions" such as thought and reasoning
– endocrine--regulates body metabolism
– cardiovascular--transports materials between different cells and tissues
Levels of Structural Organization– immune--protects the body against
infection and invasion– respiratory--provides for the intake
and output of air, as well as the exchange of gases
– digestive--supplies body with substance (food) from which energy is derived; transports wastes from the body
– urinary--filters wastes from the blood; helps maintain water and electrolyte balance
– reproductive--produces gametes; continues the species
• Organism- The sum total of all structural levels working in unison
Levels of Structural Organization
Group Brainstorm• As a group see if you can come up with all the
LIFE FUNCTIONS of our body• Write on a piece of white paper• Share with class
• What does the human body NEED to SURVIVE? (should be 5 of these) – Write these on the other side of your white paper– Beside of each, connect this to one of the life functions – Share
Necessary Life Functions• Maintaining boundaries
– “inside” remains distinct from “outside”; cells have cell membrane, body has skin
• Movement– muscular system and movement of
substances through internal organs• Responsiveness
– sense and respond to changes in the environment; nervous system
• Digestion– breakdown and delivery of nutrients
to the body
Necessary Life Functions• Metabolism- all chemical reactions within the
body– Breaking down and building (synthesis) of new
molecules– depends on the digestive and respiratory
systems• Excretion
– elimination of waste from metabolic reactions– Involves digestive, urinary, and respiratory
system.• Reproduction
– production of offspring (requires sperm and egg)
– cellular reproduction (mitosis) - produces identical cells for growth or repair
• Growth– increasing of cell size and number
Survival Needs• Nutrients (food)- chemicals
used for energy and cell building
• Oxygen required for chemical reactions (cellular respiration) that release energy from food
• Water– makes up 60-80% of our body
weight, fluid base for secretions and excretions , watery environment necessary for metabolic reactions
Survival Needs• Body Temperature - around 98°F
– if body temperature is too high, proteins break down and chemical reactions do not take place
• Atmospheric Pressure– Needed for exchange of gases (carbon dioxide and oxygen) in lungs– At high altitudes the atmospheric pressure is lower and the air is
thinner making gas exchange more difficult.
Ticket Out the Door• 1. Place the
following in the correct order:– Cells– Atom– Organ system– Organ– Organism– tissues– Molecules– organelles
2. Which body system?a. Filters wastes from bloodb. Transports nutrientsc. Breaks down foodd. Defends against antigense. Makes gametesf. Produces red blood cellsg. Contracts to produce movementh. Gas exchangei. Controls all body systemsj. Has glands that release
hormones k. Thermoregulation, sensory,
protection from environment
Question of the Week- How do you get rid of an ingrown hair?
• In order to get rid of ingrown hairs you want to remove the hair from growing back in on itself. You can do this by gently exfoliating areas where you are likely to get ingrown hairs, your face, legs, thighs, etc.
• For an already painful ingrown hair, you can get rid of ingrown hair bumps by tweezing out the perpetrating hair with a tweezer. After tweezing the hair, you should apply rubbing alcohol and some antibiotic ointment to prevent infection.
• If already infected apply a warm compress- keep doing this until you can get some of the pus out
Question of the Week: Why does the feeling of being hugged relieve stress?
Source: Web MD• Austistic kids sleep with weighted blankets• Deep Touch Pressure works on the principle of applying weight or pressure to provide proprioceptive input which calms
and modulates the central nervous system which aids the processing of sensory information (Grandin 1992, McClure & Holtz-Yotz 1991). This calming and organising has the effect of making the child feel more grounded and lowers the state of arousal.
• Special dog vests that relieve stress for dogs while traveling (pressure redirects their focus)
– “More good news from the annals of affection: Researchers at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill recently found that holding hands and hugging can measurably reduce stress. Fifty couples were asked to hold hands for 10 minutes, then hug for 20 seconds. A second group of 85 people rested quietly, not touching their significant others. Researchers then asked people in both groups to talk about a past event that left them angry or anxious. Those who hadn't cuddled before revisiting the past exhibited signs of elevated heart rate and blood pressure. But couples who had hugged and held hands weren't nearly as ruffled. "The gentle pressure of a hug can stimulate nerve endings under the skin that send calming messages to the brain and slow the release of cortisol," explains Tiffany Field, Ph.D., director of the University of Miami Medical School's Touch Research Institute. And if your honey isn't on hand? Field says other studies have found that a hug from a friend or a professional massage can also help banish tension.”

• Homeostasis video
Homeostasis• Maintenance of a stable
internal environment = a dynamic state of equilibrium– maintained for normal body
functioning– involves nervous and
endocrine systems– Imbalance of homeostasis
results in disease• A stimulus (stress) is something
that disrupts homeostasis
Homeostasis• Three components of a feedback system:
– Receptor- senses and responds to changes (sends message to control center)
– Control Center- (usually spinal cord, brain or endocrine organ) • Assesses changes and produces a
response• determines set point (normal levels)
• Effector- body structure which receives the message from control center and produces a change or response
Homeostasis• Feedback Mechanisms
– Negative feedback- reduce or stop the original stimulus• includes most homeostatic control systems• works like a household thermostat
• example: blood sugar levels

Homeostasis Review
• When we exercise our muscles give off carbon dioxide as a waste product. This increase in the level of carbon dioxide in the blood. Receptors in the carotid arteries sense the change in carbon dioxide and send a message to the brain. The brain will stimulate the lungs to increase respiration. This will lower the amount of carbon dioxide in the blood.

EFFECTOR
Homeostasis Review• In the example of blood
pressure increasing, receptors in the carotid arteries detect the change in blood pressure and send a message to thebrain. The brain will cause the heart to beat slower and thus decrease the blood pressure. Decreasing heart rate has a negative effect on blood pressure.

Language of Anatomy• Special terminology used to prevent
misunderstanding where exact terms are used for; position, direction, regions and structures– Examples:
• Directional terms- superior means toward the head end
• Regional Terms- brachial refers to the arm
• Anatomical position- body is erect with feet parallel and arms hanging at the sides with the palms facing forward.

Question of the Week• Why do we have a hole in the
heart when we are born?• Called a Patent Formen Ovale• 1 in 5 adults have this, some
people never experience any symptoms
• PFO is present in everyone before birth but seals shut in about 80 percent of people.
• A PFO is congenital, meaning it is a defect that is inborn or exists at birth. Stated another way, the defect is an abnormality, not a disease. The septum between the two atrium of the heart developed normally before birth but the flap did not seal completely after birth.
